In this study, we describe a time-saving modification of a bony-bed technique that utilizes screw-fixated Mersilene cervical cerclage suture, originally designed for treatment of uterine cervical insufficiency, as a simple, quick, and effective method for tie-down receiver/stimulator fixation.
Posterior septal artery flap for endoscopic repair of large nasal septal perforation aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of the endoscopic repair of large SPS utilizing flap pedicled with branches of PSA.
The osseointegrated steady state implant 2 (OSIA2) system was developed to provide hearing through bone conduction while avoiding complications previously reported in children using percutaneous devices.
This study presents one quantitative framework fabrication technique that saves the use of cartilage and obtains sufficient concha space for canalplasty, achieving satisfactory aesthetic results with few complications.
There have been increasing efforts across otolaryngology to perform in-office procedures with local anesthesia. Benefits include reducing the time and economic costs imposed on patients, as well as avoiding the inherent risks of general anesthesia
Ideally, the optimal surgical procedure to address choanal atresia should safely restore nasal patency, minimize damage to adjacent sinonasal structures, and eliminate reoperation with minimal disease associated morbidity.
Velopharyngeal surgery is a validated treatment option for OSA patients diagnosed with retro-velar and oropharyngeal collapse.
Traditional approaches to laryngotracheal reconstruction have relied on open transcervical approaches. With the growth of endoscopic techniques, there have been multiple advances in minimally invasive procedures to augment airway stenosis in pediatric patients.
In this How I Do It article, a single-port endoscopic removal of forehead osteoma technique for otolaryngologists and the associated outcomes are described.
Laryngomalacia (LM) is the most common congenital laryngeal anomaly caused by a delay in the maturation of supporting laryngeal cartilages. Three-dimensional exoscopy has had satisfactory and promising results in adults, but only a few pediatric series have been published.
